LED, rainbow-script

At the very beginning with my backer-TO I somehow deactivated LEDs completely. Now I seem to not being able to reactive it again. The button designed for controlling the LED brightness doesn’t work either (I have second TO where I only use this button).
Does anyone know how I might have deactivated the LEDs? At reboot or restoring older snapshots LEDs work just fine.

And another thing I’m just curious about: Should /usr/bin/rainbow_button_sync.sh really be called by cron every single minute?

I’m also curious about that :slight_smile:

See https://doc.turris.cz/doc/en/howto/led_settings?s[]=rainbow :wink: Maybe simple rainbow intensity 1 (or some number in range 1-100) helps :wink:
As to your curousity, I don’t see such line in crontab :frowning: but there is another one which made me curios:
*/5 * * * * /sbin/fan_ctrl.sh
As far as I can guess, there is no fan in Turris Omnia :wink:

My crontab is completely empty.
Thanks for linking the rainbow settings page, should have found that myself - mystake was to repeatedly search only for the script itself.
I just set the call of the rainbow script to once a day - that should be really enough.
